To all t/:toift yit may concern:

lle it known that l. Grotten Bona-zx, of Auburn, in the county of Cayuga and State ot' New York. have invented a new and useful Grease or liubri ant Cup, o1" which the following a speeitication.

My intention relates to grease or lubri- 1 cant cops and particularly to the construe- A' tion of the bases thereof', and it consists in the eon'tbinations` and constructions hereinafter set forth and claimed.

In describing this invention reference is had to the accompanying drawing in which like characters designate corresponding parts in all the views.

Figure l is a vertical sectional view ot my and il are. rcspeelubricant cup. Figs. 2

E nipple extending into the hollow lstem nicmtively. a plan and a side elevation ot' one ot' the elements 'forming the base.

Il`he grease or lubricant cup comprises. generally, a base and a cap. As here illustrated, the hase comprises a hollow stem member l, an element. provided with the head L located above thel stem member and spaced apart therefrom. and with an axial hollow nipple 3 extending into the stem member and secured thereto, and a packing disk 4 arranged between the upper side oi the stem member and said head The stem member 1 is threaded at its lower end 5 for seeurement to the bearing or other part to be lubricated, and is formed with a polysided part G near its upper end and with an annular outwardly-extending llange T at its upper end. Said stem member is also formed with internal threads S at its upper end. The head Q is peripherally-threaded and the hollow nipple 3 is externallythreadcd and turns into the threaded portion S of the stem member. Preferably said head Q is of greater diameter than the tlange 7 of the stem member.

The stem member and the elementprovided with the head 9 and nipple 3, are pressed from disks of sheet metal by the use of presses and dies. the disk from which said element is formed, having its central portion distorted in an axial direction in order to produce the nipple 3.

The packing disk 4 is of some flexible or fibrous material as leather, and is of a diameter the same as. or Igreater than, the head The cap 9 which is usually pressed from sheet metal. is internallyT threaded, turns on the periphery of the head 2 and engages the margin of the packing disk -t to ber and secured thereto, and a cap engaging the periphery of the head ol' said element. substantially as and for the purpose described.

9. A lubricant cup comprising ing a hollow stem member and provided with a head having a base havan elmnent` a threaded periphery and an axial hollow nipple exh tending into the hollow stem member and secured thereto, and an internally-thrcaded cap turning on the periphery ot the head ot' lsaid element. substantially as and 't'or the, purpose specified.

3. A lubricant cup comprising a base hav ing a hollow stein member internally thread ed at its upper endand an element provided with a head having a threaded pe riphery and with an axial, externallythreaded hollow nipple tilting into the threaded portion of the stem member, and an intermlly-threaded cap turning on the periphery of the head of said element. sub stantially as and for the purpose set forth.

4. A lubricant cup comprising a base having a hollow stem member formed with an outwardly-extending flange at its upper end, an element provided with a head arranged aboye the flange of the stem member, and with an axial hollow nipple extending into the hollow stem member and secured thereto and a packing disk interposed between the tlange of the stem member and the head of said element, and a cap engaging the periphery of the head of said element and the edge of said disk, substantially as and for the purpose described.

A lubricant cup comprising a base having a hollow stem member formed with an outwardly-extending flange at its upper end, an element provided with a peripherallythreaded head arranged above the flange of the stem member. and with an axial hollow nipple extending into the hollow stem member and secured thereto and a packing disk interposed between the t'lange of the stem llO head of said element and engaging the edge l of the packing disk, substantially as and for the purpose specified.

G. A lubricant Cup Comprising a base having a hollow Stem member formed with an and with internal threads at its upper end, an element provided with a peripherallvthreaded head arranged above the flange of the Stem member, and with an axial, externally-threaded hollow nipple fitting into the threaded portion of the stem member and a paeking disk interposed between the flange of the stem membe and the head of Said element. and an int'ernalljv-threaded eap turning on the head. of .Caid element and enstantiallv as and for the purpoae setforth.

T. lubrieant enp eompriSing a bave having i hollow' Stem membe and an element provided with a head and an axial nipple extending into the hollow Stem member and l eeured thereto` Said element being of Sheet metal and having the nipple depreesed from and integral with the axial portion ot' the head thereof. and a lap engaging the peripher)- of the head ot' Said element. Aaub- Stantiallv aS and 'for the purpose deaeribed.

S. A lubrieant eup Comprising a base having a hollow Stem member formed with internal thread:-' at its upper end and an element provided with a periplierallv-threaded head and with an axial. eXternall '-thrladed hollow nipple litting into the threaded portion ot the stem member. said element being of sheet metal and having the. nipple depressed from and integral with the axial portion of the head thereof. and an internally-threaded ap turning on the head of said element, substantialhv as and for the purpose specified.

9. A lubricant cup comprising a base having a hollow stein member formed with an outwardly-extending flange at it; upper end.

an element Seeured to the Stem member and provided with a peripheraliv-threaded head arranged above and spaced apart from the tiange of the stem member, the head being of greater diameter than the l'lange ot the stem member. and a paeking disk ot' greater outwartlly-ext ending flange at its upper end i diameter than the head of said element. interposed between aard head and tlange and an internally-threaded rap turning on the head and engaging the margin ot' the pating diei( and bending the same over the edge ot' the llange oi" the Stem member. substantiall v as and tor the purpese #et forth.

1t). ft lubrieant eup comprising a ba e having a hollow Stem member formed with an outwardlv-extending flange at it V upper Q end and with internal threads at it upper gagmg the edge ot' said packing (liek. Subend. an element provided with a peripherall \'tlneaded head arranged above and L\paeed apart i'rom the tlange ot the rdem number. the head being ot' lgreater diameter than A aid llange. said element being also provided with an axial. externallythreaded hollow nipple lit'iing into the threaded portion olt the stem member. and a parking di k interposed between the tlange ot' the latem member andl the head of aaid element. the liaeking disk being ot greater diameter than the head oi' said element. and an imernallvthreaded rap turning on the head of Said element and engaging the edge portion oi' thel parking disk and bending the Iame over the edge ol the llange and the stem member. Substantiall v as and t'or the purpose deseribttl.
